As a student of Kinesiology currently I enjoy reading about new studies in the field that deal with increasingly problematic diseases such as Osteoporosis which has been and continues to be a detrimental disease that havocs over 10 million people in the United States alone and millions more worldwide. It's a disease that for one affects our nation greater than others due to our complacent lifestyles, which has attributed to other national epidemics such as Diabetes and obesity. Over time our life expectancies will begin to fall (not including life support which can keep us "alive" for extended periods) if we maintain these types of sedentary lifestyles.

This study interested me because of course we know the general effectiveness and necessity to include a thorough exercise regimen in one's daily life if not only just to stay healthy, fight disease and harmful infections/bacteria, as well as to keep muscles and bones from deteriorating from not using them over the years. Osteoporosis is a gateway disease that starts with frailty of bones and has the potential to branch off into countless other problems and effectively put people out of commission and from enjoying their lives in their later years just because they weren't as active as they needed to be.

If it's possible to expose bones to high impact / intensity stimulation under a simulatory mechanism it'd be a great advantage to show people defined results from varied subjects and age groups to demonstrate the necessity of incorporating exercise and constant bone/muscle use on a regular basis. Just can't rely solely on the simulation, obviously the importance of exercise is the underlying message that I'd hope this study to show.
